2 people are racist : /

[matt17389]

loved the movie the express. i wasn't around during ernie davis, but he kinda reminds me of Cam Newton. I dont know why but lol, both heisman winners. both wanted by alot of teams in the NFL. and both have passion in other areas outside of football.

[TheOfficialK2]

too bad 44 is takin for granted now...havent seen an SU back wear it in so long

[shtfacedmanatee]

@TheOfficialK2 It was retired in 2005...

[SH7861WeezyBabyy]

I was watching The Express ... I cried, so sad:( ...such a talented athlete lost at such an young age ..and after what he went through just because of his skin color ...what an ugly place humans can create ..RIP

[bettescorpio]

I cried when I saw The Express.... so sad. So talented and ripped from us.

#44. best football number in all of history. jim brown, ernie davis, floyd little. the 3 top running backs in college football. R.I.P. Ernie We will love you here n Syracuse forever.

[LordOgax]

I was there when they retired the basketball number 44. Darn so close :(

[OTKP]

damn RIP Ernie Davis

[executionery4145]

great player so sad he never really hit his full potential

[2010barranquilla]

rip davisss

[sorariku856]

R.I.P. Ernie Davis, i am a huge UM and SU fan and now i feel that i will go to 1 of those colleges. I saw your movie 5 times in one day and i am honored to be a fan. Your # will go down in history and if you would have been here today, you and Jim Brown would've been the best group of running backs to ever play together...

[wolfmanrick]

outstanding.RIP.mr davis

[afilliated215]

JIM BROWN

[glasfurd31]

I was actually touched by a very simple sentence in Wikipedia, go figure. The article simply stated a fact that when you think about it is pretty incredible. Basically, in the history of SU football, we have only won 1 Nat'l Championship & 1 Heisman Trophy ... and Ernie Davis was involved in both. That's incredible. All Hail the Elmira Express!

*R.I.P.* Ernest Davis December 14, 1939 May 18, 1963 #44

[TheYOUNG912]

when i grow up and go to college i'm goin to be a good football player just like ernie and never take life for granted.I want to inspire children that they can be what ever they pu their mind to never give up on your dream go for it.

[Bossrah]

Be sure to go to Syracuse than

[dhaRealist95]

he is my IDOL.thats why im going to syracuse college.and i want the same number!!!!so im gonna pass it down to any player,of football

[BunnyOfElvnteenlives]

44 was my favourite number since I discovered football, since my favourite number was 4.

Small world

[ayecindyy]

rip ernie davis!

[anito12345]

Too bad Jim Brown'n not coaching anymore.

[APOSA123]

Brutal vi la pelicula con mis hijos y la disfrutamos mucho mi hijo mayor no podia creer las barbaridades que le hicieron a ernie davis, el odio que tenian por la raza negra ( que todavia gente estupida tiene ) entendio mejor lo que significa el racismo y lo que es Tener espiritu de lucha y cambio gracias por el video y la pelicula!!! Inspirador el mensaje

[bs20sanders]

"44"

[ceddyruck]

I Just watched the movie The Express again and I must say that the world is a better place because of Ernie Davis

[weslaylay5]

You got that right.

That was one of the better movies I've ever seen.

[zipper2k8]

get over yourself, America may be a better place but the rest of the world is not bloody hell. Your country had the problems not every country and certainly not the world.

[ayecindyy]

What are you talking about? There talking about America not the world. So maybe YOU should get over yourself! And America is ONE of the many countries that had heavy racism back then. Every country has problems but that doesn't mean we caused them, don't blame everything on us! I know the world is'nt better but you can't depend on America on fixing it all by its self we need help doing it. So maybe you should think before you talk cause you made NO sense.

[changeUPent]

Racism has existed almost as long as mankind, smart guy! As a matter of fact, many countries have FAR more severe, and long-standing, racial problems then the United States. Most, AT LEAST, have far more harsh socioeconomic problems regarding class, religion and gender...we just commit more crimes and our government/IMPROVING foreign policy can fight their own battle...so maybe next time, how about sounding like you actually deserve an opinion?

[Sp0rtsFan2008]

very good point.. but by helping america become a better place, that in turn, makes the world a better place.. just think if all that is wrong with america is fixed - how much better the whole world would be

[skiingjohnny]

@ceddyruck heck ya
